Also, be sure you are running EQMOD with adminisitrator privileges. You can do this manually, everytime your run it, or you can set it to do so automatically when it launches by selecting the appropriate checkbox in Properties > Compatibility:

Please don't recommend this. It will put EQMOD into a "privileged" mode where TheSky6 or other ASCOM-speaking apps like ACP, NINA, SGP, TheSkyX, SharpCap, PHD, etc. cannot connect via ASCOM to the driver unless also running "as Administrator" and then any other devices with EXE type ASCOM drivers will be required to run them "as Administrator" as well, creating a "trail of tears". Please see the headline on the main ASCOM website
As well as the linked FAQ Running "as Administrator" on Windows for details, including how this Old Wives' tale got started.
